Pubs in Covent Garden


imagePubs in Covent Garden

Covent Garden (/ˈkɒvənt/ or /ˈkʌvənt/) is a district of Westminster, in Greater London, on the eastern fringes of the West End, between St Martin's Lane and Drury Lane. It is associated with the former fruit-and-vegetable market in the central square, now a popular shopping and tourist site, and with the Royal Opera House, which is also known as "Covent Garden". The district is divided by the main thoroughfare of Long Acre, north of which is given over to independent shops centred on Neal's Yard and Seven Dials, while the south contains the central square with its street performers and most of the historical buildings, theatres and entertainment facilities, including the London Transport Museum and the Theatre Royal, Drury Lane.

The area was briefly settled in the 7th century when it became the heart of the Anglo-Saxon trading town of Lundenwic, abandoned at the end of the 9th century. By 1200 part of it had been walled off by Westminster Abbey for use as arable land and orchards. Referred to as "the garden of the Abbey and Convent", and later "the Covent Garden", it was seized by Henry VIII and granted to the Earls of Bedford in 1552. The 4th Earl commissioned Inigo Jones to build some fine houses to attract wealthy tenants. Jones designed the Italianate arcaded square along with the church of St Paul's. The design of the square was new to London and had a significant influence on modern town planning, acting as the prototype for new estates as London grew.

Devonshire Arms


The Devonshire Arms is a moderately common name for an English pub. The name is for the Dukes of Devonshire, members of the peerage from a wealthy aristocratic family.

In 2011, the Daily Mail counted 42 pubs with "Devonshire" in their name, ranking it equal to "Five Bells", "Gardeners Arms", "Prince Albert" and "Yew Tree".

The name is for the Dukes of Devonshire, holders of a peerage and members of a wealthy aristocratic family related to the Cavendishes. In areas where they held land, as at Chatsworth, Derbyshire and in Chiswick, there are often both Cavendish Arms and Devonshire Arms pubs and street names preserving the names of both families, while at Chatsworth the pub name "The Snake" refers to the family's coat of arms. The Snake Inn, a coaching inn on the old turnpike road on the Snake Pass in the Peak District of Derbyshire, similarly gets its name from the Devonshire emblem.

The "Duke of Devonshire" in Balham High Road is a Victorian Era corner pub with traditional pub glasswork from the late 1890s, included "an impressive, mirrored bar-back" with original counter and wooden panelling.

The mock Tudor Devonshire Arms in Camden, also known as "The Dev" or by its previous name The Hobgoblin, is said to be "London's most famous alternative venue" It was the first Goth subculture pub in Camden. It is the longest-surviving Goth pub in London and has been a focal point for the city's alternative scene for many years. During the 1980s, Spider Stacy and Shane MacGowan of The Pogues frequented the pub. The interior featured in "Goths", an episode from a 2003 BBC anthology series, Spine Chillers.
